Do They Not Still Make Yardarms?

If they don't, they need to back order some because we used to hang mother fuckers like this off of them on the spot.

U.S. forces responding to gunfire on a pirated American yacht found all four U.S. citizens dead on board, U.S. Central Command said in a statement Tuesday. Two pirates were killed and 13 others detained by U.S. forces who boarded the vessel off the coast of Somalia, authorities said.

Total agreement here. Every Navy over there has been way to easy on these asshats. HOWEVER, the people on the boat deserve some of the blame. I mean, come on now, the world has been flooded with stories of ships being hijacked in this area. Then we have wars and threats of wars along with terrorists. Did these people pay no attention to the news? Or did they think that they were immune from all attacks because they were merican civs? No, I am not blaming the victims-I don't think-but I am blaming their lack of intelligence for simply being in that very very dangerous area to begin with

Anon, way above, is right: Warthogs can't land on a carrier, but they sure as shit could take off from one and land in Djibouti with dirty gun barrels and no ordnance. Or just take off from Djibouti in the first place. Shit, a coupla old WWII F4U5A Corsairs could do the job just fine.

There's another good reason for yardarms - when the sun is over the yardarm, it's time to drink! I useta have a moveable one in my yard so the sun was always over it.
